Pork, Sweet Potato and Apple stir-fry

Results
I burned the sweet potato. I think next time steaming the sweet potatoes might help a bit. But still, I like these flavors together.

Chicken w/ Asparagus III: Hakuna Marsala

My third take on this meal, after doing a lemon sauce and a hollandaise sauce, is a marsala sauce.

This is the best of the three Chicken w/ Asparagus recipes that I've done. The recipe still needs something, but it's getting closer to a nice regular meal.

Broccoli Beef: The Family Recipe

Much better than the other recipe I did. A bit more gravy for this amount of broccoli might be nice. But I'll be revisiting this one again and again.

This has quickly become of of my favorite recipes. The amount here tends to feed two of us for dinner and still have leftovers for three lunches when served with rice.

Chicken w/ Asparagus II: Sunday, Monday, Hollandaise

This recipe is adapted from a recipe found on Greg Cooks. I made a version of it in an earlier entry and thought that, this time around, I'd try a different sauce. I'm adapting about.com's Hollandaise Sauce recipe.

Additionally, I'm breaking from tradition and making this entire meal on what is usually my prep day. If it works well, I'll do a variant where I split the preparation like usual later.

This was okay. It turns out I'm not a big fan of Hollandaise sauce. I probably won't be making this particular variant again soon. I've done another variation with Marsala wine that I like better and will post the recipe soon.
